@weswinder If we’re looking for the “Linux of AI,” it has to be neutral and open by design.
NEAR Protocol stands out for two simple reasons:
It’s building AI-native infrastructure, not just adding AI as a narrative.
Chain abstraction + strong UX makes it usable beyond crypto natives 🤠👍🏻
@heyibinance Lower fees are great. More users, better.
But the real shift comes with AI-native infrastructure & user-owned assets.
That’s where NEAR Protocol quietly moves ahead.
Not louder — just building 🤠
@0xNairolf AI-as-a-Service really feels like the new consulting.
But when agents handle data and workflows, security is everything.
That’s why infrastructure like NEAR Protocol — focused on secure, verifiable AI — quietly matters more than people think.
Secure AI > just AI 🤠👍🏻
@wacy_time1 Execution + UX for agents will matter more than people expect.
Chains that natively support identity, async execution, privacy, and seamless payments will have the edge.
Some ecosystems — like NEAR — already seem quietly positioned for that shift 🤠
@BillionAireSon 6️⃣ Market Attention ≠ Project Health Crypto narratives rotate.
Lack of hype doesn’t equal lack of progress.
Historically, projects that build quietly during downturns often lead the next cycle.
@BillionAireSon Why NEAR Protocol Is NOT a Dead Project
1️⃣ Active Development & Shipping Dead chains don’t ship products.
NEAR continues to roll out infrastructure upgrades, AI integrations, and ecosystem tools. Development activity is ongoing.
@BillionAireSon 5️⃣ Strong Treasury & Foundation The NEAR Foundation is still active, funding builders and expanding ecosystem initiatives.
Dead projects don’t fund hackathons or new infra.
@BillionAireSon 4️⃣ Superior UX Architecture Native account abstraction, human-readable addresses, and flexible fee models — NEAR focused on usability long before it became a trend.
@BillionAireSon 3️⃣ AI Infrastructure Narrative NEAR strategically positioned itself in the AI + blockchain intersection.
With initiatives around AI agents and AI-native infra, it’s aligned with the strongest emerging narrative in tech right now.
@BillionAireSon 2️⃣ Real Sharding (Nightshade) While many L1s talk about scalability, NEAR implemented dynamic sharding (Nightshade).
That’s real horizontal scaling — not just roadmap promises.
@vinibarbosabr@near_ai@ilblackdragon Love seeing a security-first approach here.
Rust + WASM and a strong NEAR team behind IronClaw definitely make it interesting 🤠
One thing I’m curious about though: how are credentials handled at runtime — are they fully isolated from both the LLM loop and external tools?
@zacodil It seems like an interesting and unique idea. Think about having emails related to the wallet or any topic related to Near in just one special email. It would be great 🤠💚
NEAR Email is now in early access.

No signup. No password. Your wallet OWNS the inbox.
Same way you own your tokens - you own your emails🧵
@zacodil If near is truly included in the top-tier reputable ETFs, it could have a very high level of legitimacy and credibility. I personally encourage everyone to get near ETFs 🤠✌🏻
